I know this question has been asked in various forms - I've read a number of related posts but wanted to get some verification from the community, as I've called 3 different FFL's in MA and received all sorts of answers.
The first question - can I buy a MA compliant carbine with an FID? EG: Sig MPX (I called Mass Firearms Store and they have one that's sold MA Compliant). They also said they'd sell it to me on an FID (others have told me no).
Second question - can I buy the ammo for it? My reading on ammo laws in MA says I cannot buy handgun ammunition. Can I buy 9mm for use in a carbine? Can I buy it in NH and possess it in MA (as the law says I can't buy it on an FID, but nothing that I've seen in regards to possession)?
Lastly, I'll attach a couple of screenshots - in general, does this mean if I don't have a large-cap magazine under my direct control or attached to a rifle, that I could carry all sorts of semi-auto rifles, as long as I only have 10 round magazines? I've read a LOT that contradicts this - but this mass.gov document seems to indicate otherwise?
Thanks all for the help - about to get an FID and would love to stay out of any sort of legal trouble (while also getting some fun rifles to shoot at the range).
